Living in London

In the last few days we have found ourselves taken with the game of snooker. We have become completely enamoured of the Embassy World Championships now being played (and televised on BBC2) over a total of 17 days. It’s really unbelievable how skilled these guys are at spin and geometry, and able to put the correct ball into the pocket while leaving the white ball perfectly positioned to make their next shot.

Unfortunately, our tentative favourite, Peter Ebdon, was eliminated yesterday. McCulloch and Stevens are battling it out this evening. It’s a toss up who we will be supporting (psychically) in the finals on May 2^nd. Because we know none of the players, we usually root for the underdog … but hair styles play a large part in Linda’s support, and Stevens has TOO MUCH HAIR GEL!
